essayed on the screen by Taapsee.

Taapsee
Pannu, “We really had big boots to fill. Primarily it started with the fact
that I wanted to do two films where two actresses would work together with
equal roles. They are big heroes for the entire nation to look upto. For me a
very emotional reason to do this film was that I just couldn’t stop thinking
about my mother when I heard the story. For me this story is about those women,
who before marriage spent their life listening to their fathers, after
marriage, they lived for their husbands and later they had children and lived
for them and never lived for themselves. My mother is 60 and now I feel like
telling her that she is should live her life the way she wants. From my side
this film is dedicated to my mother”
An
emotional Bhumi Pednekar, who plays the role of Chandro Tomar in the film said,
“The fact that Taapsee and I were going to do this together was the most
exciting part of me because I think I am a phenomenal actor. When Tushar said
that she is finalised, I knew that it was meant to be. There are some films
which are very special and this is one of them. This film is an ode to my
grandparents, my parents, and an ode to my mom. Just what our mothers did for
us, we don’t even get a chance to thank them. This is our way of thanking them.
Both the dadis is such an inspiration for all of them.
Talking
to the media, Tushar said, "I saw them on the episode of Satyamev Jayate,
Aamir show and I had tears in my eyes. I told my wife who is also the producer
that I wanted to tell this story. But this film is not just me, it my writers
Balwinder Singh Janjua and Jagdip and my team, my real hero is Sudhakar Reddym
the cameraman. I always knew that I wanted a story to direct but didn't know
what. But when I saw them on that episode, I knew I wanted to tell their story.
This film is made on believe. Everyone went out of their way to make this film
and it took five years.”
Shibasish
Sarkar, Group CEO, Reliance Entertainment adds, “This is a real life story.
India is a big country and has many stories to tell, but not all stories come
in front of us. Tushar identified this story. It is a real life journey of
Tomar dadis and their family. It took us some time to put this together and
finally Taapsee and Bhumi landed up in the journey. I feel indebted to Tushar
for bringing this story to us,”
